LOOK NO FURTHER! Book with David
David was absolutely AMAZING! From start to finish, he made our experience unforgettable. He was incredibly patient with our group, extremely knowledgeable, and had such a great way of making history come alive. He made learning interactive, engaging, and genuinely fun. We never felt like we were just listening to a lecture! We also felt incredibly safe and well taken care of throughout the entire tour. David was attentive to our group’s needs, professional, and truly went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. And as if that wasn’t enough, David has an AMAZING eye for photography! He captured some of the most beautiful photos of our group and somehow managed to get all the perfect angles and moments. We left with not only incredible memories, but beautiful pictures to remember them by. If you’re visiting Machu Picchu, BOOK WITH DAVID! You will not regret it. He was truly one of the highlights of our trip and I cannot recommend him highly enough!

Very Smooth and Enriching Trip to Machu Pichu, Peru
We had an amazing experience in Peru, and a big part of that was thanks to the wonderful team that David has created. They supported us throughout the trip; from the very beginning, they were in touch with us, helping with planning and making sure the itinerary matched our interests and needs. We always felt that they were genuinely invested in making our trip special. One thing we really appreciated was how accommodating they were. We made a few last-minute changes to our plans, and the team handled everything smoothly. Throughout the trip, we got personalized attention and made us feel cared for. A heartfelt thank you to David and the entire team. In a travel industry that can sometimes feel impersonal and transactional, they stand out for their warmth, authenticity, and commitment to creating memorable experiences. We returned home with wonderful memories and a deep appreciation for the care and effort they put into every detail of our trip.

Unforgettable 1 day trip to Humantay Lake
Our 1 day trip to Humantay Lake with David was the highlight of our journey to Peru. His knowledge of the area is incredible—not just the history and geography, but also the local wildlife, birds, and plants. What made it even better was how naturally he shared that knowledge along the way. He would point out birds and native flora, explain local customs, and offer little insights that helped us appreciate the beauty and culture of Peru on a much deeper level. David is also one of the kindest and most thoughtful people we met during our travels. He has a genuine enthusiasm for what he does and a special ability to make people feel comfortable and welcome. Spending time with him felt less like being on a guided tour and more like exploring Peru with a knowledgeable friend who truly wanted us to have the best possible experience. A heartfelt thank you to David and the entire team. In a travel industry that can sometimes feel impersonal and transactional, they stand out for their warmth, authenticity, and commitment to creating memorable experiences. We returned home with wonderful memories and a deep appreciation for the care and effort they put into every detail of our trip. Wish David and his team the best to take this forward. We are certainly going to recommend his venture team to family and friends.

Súper chévere!
If I had to choose 3 words to describe our tour guide David, they’d be dedicated, grounded, and kind. My friends and I booked 4 days of tours with him, arranging a pick up from Cusco, treks to Humantay and Sacsayhuaman, and a tour of Machu Picchu. This experience was tailored to just what we wished to do! And while we all felt the physical demands of reaching these altitudes and long days of 26K steps (half of them uphill on rocky ground) we were grateful to be supported and felt safe with David’s guidance. David is knowledgeable of his culture, the spirits, folklore, history, and politics of these regions, and shared cool facts about botanicals and the animals as well. One highlight was on the way back from the train station, he had us pull over so we could see the ancient Inca carvings into the side of the mountain. This was unspeakably beautiful and transportative. In addition to Spanish and Quechua, David speaks English and German. We feel incredibly lucky to have found such a thoughtful and capable tour guide. You won’t regret going with him for your unique Peru experience!

amazing experience with a great tour company!
Peruvian Culture Tours helped my friend group customize our trip to Machu Picchu around a previous trip we had planned, and they did the absolute most to make sure we got there! There was an unexpected traffic jam in Ollantaytambo, and our guide thought on his feet and got us to the train station in time when many other travelers missed their trains. I was AMAZED by his ability to think on his feet, stay calm and stay positive--he didn't skip a beat leading us to the train station. Similarly, Peruvian Culture Tours helped us get tickets to Circuit 2 of Machu Picchu even though didn't book super far in advance (oops)!! They planned our stay in Aguas Calientes to give us multiple chances to get our tickets, and we ended up getting them thanks to our guide's careful planning. All in all, you will get amazingly personalized attention when booking with Peruvian Culture Tours--they communicate regularly and clearly and adapt seamlessly with any travel hiccups. On top of that, the tour itself was incredible. Our tour guide was knowledgeable about everything from archeology to naturalism to Incan spiritual beliefs, and he answered my many questions with patience and abundant information. This tour company is the best!

Beautiful views, excellent tour guide, ethical company!
Our trip with Peruvian Culture Tours was amazing and one-of-a-kind. When I booked, I had no idea the level of personalized attention we would get. Throughout the booking process, the company was available to answer all kinds of questions and even allowed my group to combine two experiences at our request! Once we began our tour, I was amazed by the breadth and depth of knowledge our tour guide had. He shared about the significance of Salkantay and Humantay Mountains to ancient Peruvians as well as to communities in the current day. He was also very knowledgeable about the plants alongside the trek, telling me their scientific names, common names in Quechua, and their traditional and modern uses. I had an unforgettable time being surrounded by amazing views and encouraged through the challenging trek while learning about history, biology, archeology, and overall just having a wonderful time getting to know our tour guide. As an important addition, our guide also shared how much better his experience working with this company was than his experience at other companies. I would definitely recommend booking with Peruvian Culture Tours for an experience that is both wonderful and ethical!

Peru - breathtakingly beautiful
This journey from Cusco through the Sacred Valley of the Incas to Puno and Lake Titicaca will remain unforgettable for us. Every single day was filled with special impressions, beautiful encounters, and perfectly organized experiences. From the very beginning, everything worked excellently – the drivers were always punctual, friendly, and helpful, all processes were well organized, and we could feel safe and well taken care of at all times. This allowed us to truly enjoy the magic of Peru with all our hearts. A very special thanks goes to David. With his warm, caring nature, he made this trip something truly special. He was always attentive, helpful, and incredibly dedicated. Especially during the ascent to Siete Colores, you could feel how important the well-being of his guests was to him – his preparation, motivation, and support helped us a lot. The overnight stay with local families at Lake Titicaca was also an emotional highlight that will stay with us for a long time. These authentic encounters greatly enriched the journey. We are grateful for this wonderful support and wholeheartedly recommend David and his team. A journey full of warmth, trust, and unforgettable moments!

Great tour guide!
I went on the two day tour of Machu Picchu with my family, and our tour guide David was great! He was very prepared and helpful, and he has a lot of knowledge that I don’t think I would have easily found elsewhere. He was very nice and funny and made it a great experience.
